It’s highly re assuring and commendableIt shows that we still have courageous members of the bench in Nigeria who are ready to follow the law and apply it without pandering to the left or right.We have always said that the military invasion of Nnamdi Kanu’s home was uncalled for since his court case was upcoming before that incident.
Our advise to the government as we had earlier said and also suggested by the judge is for the federal government to seek a political solution because it is the only way out and if the government is sincere to restore peace, it should not shy away from it, Okwu said.

We know those behind this mischief, which is all about the 2023 presidency.We shall soon expose the sponsors and the promoters, Okwu said.
